Care Guide- Virgin Topper

Hair Topper Care Guide
1. Washing Frequency
-
Daily wear: every 2–4 weeks
-
Occasional use: every 7–10 wears
-
High activity/sweating: wash more often as needed
2. Detangling Before Washing
Use a wide-tooth comb or paddle brush. Start from the ends and work upward to avoid breakage.
3. Washing Instructions
-
Fill a basin with lukewarm water and mix in a small amount of sulfate-free, salon-quality shampoo.
-
Hold the parting/base area and gently dip the topper in and out of the water — avoid rubbing or twisting.
-
Rinse thoroughly with clean lukewarm water. Repeat if needed.
4. Conditioning
-
Apply conditioner to mid-lengths and ends only — avoid the base.
-
Rinse thoroughly until water runs clear.
-
Use a deep conditioning mask once a month for extra moisture (especially for blonde toppers).
5. Drying
-
Gently blot with a microfiber towel — do not rub.
-
Air dry on a mannequin head overnight.
-
If using heat tools, wait until completely dry and always apply a heat protectant. Use low heat.
6. Brushing & Styling
-
Brush regularly since toppers don’t receive natural scalp oils.
-
Never brush when wet.
-
When styling, secure the topper on a mannequin head using T-pins through the clips only (not the silk top).
-
Limit use of styling products; avoid root cover-up sprays that may stain the base.
7. Professional Touch-ups
Schedule occasional trims or color adjustments with a stylist who is experienced with hair toppers.
8. Storage Tips
-
Store on a mannequin head with clips closed and hair gently detangled.
-
Keep away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight to prevent damage or color fading.
-
For long-term storage or travel, we recommend using a dust-proof silk or velvet pouch —
our custom protective storage bags are available and designed specifically to keep your topper in perfect condition.
